Abstract:
An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for granting hypervisor privileges. An installation module installs a monitor hypervisor wherein only the monitor hypervisor is granted the hypervisor privileges by the computer. An authentication module authenticates a second hypervisor. An eviction module evicts the monitor hypervisor if the second hypervisor is authenticated. The installation module further installs the second hypervisor after the monitor hypervisor is evicted so that only the second hypervisor is granted hypervisor privileges by the computer.
